Typ 170 V - The Mercedes-Benz 170 V (W 136), the so-called “Kübelsitzwagen” or bucket seat car (in this picture with a closed top of a late version), is produced in various versions from 1938 to 1942 with a total production of more than 19,000 units. Due to its high weight and lacking four-wheel drive, it is for limited off-road use only. Yet, it stands the test on surfaced roads given its robustness and reliability.
